Palms Station Official / Hillel Tigay

For frontman Hillel Tigay, Palms Station represents everything that is home. The project's name is an homage to his light rail stop in LA and a return to his purpose for moving to the City of Angels. Tigay spent his childhood between Israel and Philadelphia. After depthy studies in musicology at the University of Pennsylvania, he rocketed out to the West Coast to chase his alt-pop rockstar dreams. He soon signed to A&M Records Though the record deal fell through, Tigay had found his true home in LA and its endless iterations of creativity. Over the years, he employed his creative hunger to genre hop from indie to world music, even rapping as Dr. Dreidel in the heeb-hop group M.O.T. for a stint.

And that brings us back to Palms Station: Tigay's living, breathing laboratory, built from a life as a creative savant-adventurer. With the release of Stand Together. Fall Apart. in 2022, Tigay (re)introduced the world to his singular sound.
